FOR SALE: About 400 78s and 100 records sleeves in Purcellville, VA

Post by FredSugarHall_fan »

If you are near or passing by Purcellville, Virginia, in the next 10 days, and are looking for a giant lot of records to add to your collection, look no further! I am offering a giant lot of records I acquired and sorted through while here at college that I would like to move out of here.

This lot (see images below -- they're stored on various shelving units in my dorm room) comprises about 400 10" records, mostly before the mid-'40s from what I can tell. There are a lot of Deccas, dimestore labels, and Victors -- there are at least 100 dance band 78s (to be clear, no "desirables" or extremely rare titles here -- none that I liked enough to pull out), a bit less than ⅓ of which are acoustic. About half of this lot is pre-WWII, the other half I have not sorted through much but did see a blend of many genres. There's also about 35 Guy Lombardo records in the mix, about a dozen of which are Columbia Viva-tonals from the early Depression years (I know these are not usually popular, but I have heard of people who are big Guy Lombardo fans).

Now, the record sleeves: about 30 of these are pre-Depression (or Depression Era) sleeves from labels such as Crown, Perfect, Columbia, Brunswick, Banner, etc. -- a good few dimestore labels. The other 70ish are Capitol, RCA Victor, newer Columbia (the tan drab ones as opposed to the evergreen "New Process"), and Decca variety. All of these sleeves should be intact so they could still hold a record in them -- no records should be falling out of the bottom of the sleeve on these.

I'll part with all the records for $100 for all OR BEST OFFER. The sleeves will go for $25 for all OR BEST OFFER. Happy to make offers and deals.

Pickup at Patrick Henry College. I have no means of transportation, so the pickup must occur here on campus. Again, within the next 10 days, as I fly out on December 14th back home for the winter break.

Thank you for looking.

EDIT: It appears I forgot to add the photos initially. Sorry! They should appear now...
